From time to time, like right around Christmas, Kohl’s e-mail customers will receive a Mystery Offer in their inbox with a promo code offering anywhere from 20-40% off, usually good for one day only.

To make the most of these, save your big-ticket items for one of these offers then combine it with a department code, free shipping, and Kohl’s cash and watch those prices crumble as the savings add up! Now that’s how to save at Kohl’s!

It’s just one of the best ways to learn how to get the best Kohl’s deals!

2. Stackable Store Coupons And Promo Codes

The Kohl’s coupons and promo codes are our very favorite method of savings at Kohl’s! As couponers, we are accustomed to the coupon lingo of “stacking”, but this is a concept you don’t find very often outside the grocery market.

But Kohl’s deserves a big thumbs up because they offer two forms of promo codes, in the form of Dollars Off and Percentage Off, and you can pile them into your shopping cart up to four deep! Yes, that is F-O-U-R (4!) codes that you can use at one time!

Now that’s how to save at Kohl’s and how to use Kohl’s coupons to the full extent of saving you some BIG money!

For example, take a blender that is regularly priced at $180 on sale for $100. Cardholders may get a 30% promo code (received via email or by checking promo code websites such as RetailMeNot) dropping the item to $70. Then, there may be a “Dollars Off” department code for certain items, say it’s $10 off $50 houseware purchase. Use that code to get another $10 off and drop the price to $60. Then, if you time it correctly, you could earn Kohl’s cash (earn $10 on every $50 you spend to use at a later date) or Yes2You Rewards.

Here’s a summary of how you can stack the discounts for some Kohl’s hacks:

3. Earn Kohl’s Cash

You will earn $10 for every $50 you spend. Sounds like a gal’s dream, doesn’t it? Just make sure that you are shopping during times when they are offering Kohl’s cash to earn, otherwise, it would be a time when you can use your Kohl’s cash.

So you can’t earn AND use your Kohl’s Cash at the same time… the dates never coincide like that. You are either able to earn the reward or able to use the reward. Usually, the dates to use the reward are about a week after the dates that you earned the reward.

The best part is that the Kohl’s Cash reward comes off just like real cash. It is not a coupon that you need to spend a certain threshold. You use it just like using a $10 bill.

BONUS: To get the $10 off $50, you really only have to spend $48 (not the full $50)! Just be within $2 of $50 after all the discounts and you will still earn the Kohl’s cash. Boom! That’s how to save at Kohl’s!

4. Sign Up For Yes2You Rewards Program

Yes 2 You Rewards are not the same as Kohl’s cash. Nope. The Kohl’s Yes2You Rewards program is a loyalty program where you earn $5 for every 100 points you earn by shopping like usual.

And the points can be earned super easily: 1 point for every dollar you spend!

You will see them in your shopping cart when you sign in to your account online, and they will also show up at the register where you can choose to use them or keep saving! When you sign up for Yes 2 You Rewards you will be guaranteed to receiveat least 8 offers a year, plus a birthday gift and other opportunities to earn more.

Don’t you love saving at Kohl’s?!!

5. Wedding Registry Rewards

Kohl’s also has a rewards program called the Ever After Rewards program. You earn 10% rewards on gifts purchased through your registry. You’ll save an extra 15% on the items left on your registry for up to three months after your wedding, free gifts just for registering. Plus, your guests can save 20% on a $100 in-store purchase from your registry.

That means if you receive $1,500 worth of wedding gifts from your registry, you’ll also receive $150 of rewards! This is how to save at Kohl’s bigtime! Yayyyy!

You don’t need to sign up to receive the rewards, you’ll automatically get them in your account when your guests buy anything off your registry.

But maybe you aren’t getting married.. what about having a baby or celebrating a momentous occasion? Those work too!

Oh, and another bonus! They have a Registry Completing Program which will allow you to receive 15% off items left in your registry. And you’ll have up to three months after the event to buy the items. Score!

6. Sign Up For A Kohl’s Charge Card

Immediately when you sign up you’ll get an extra 25% off on your first day’s purchase, and THEN you’ll receive another 15% off when your card arrives in the mail.

As you should be fully aware, I am not a proponent of credit cards and debt. When I use my Kohl’s Card, I immediately go right back to the Customer Service desk and pay off the entire balance using my Debit Card, that way I don’t have to worry about getting into trouble later.

Just because I love Kohl’s clearance, doesn’t mean I want to go into debt over it.

Just bring the competitor’s ad to the store with you showing the current date on the ad and they will gladly match the competitor’s price.

Now, you won’t be able to use any other percent or dollars off discounts on the price-matched items, so you’ll need to pay attention to which way is the best deal. However, you will still earn Kohl’s cash & Yes2You Rewards!

8. Watch The Price On Your Purchases

Customers have two weeks to take their receipts back to Kohl’s and get a price adjustment on any merchandise that may have gone on sale after you purchased it. Some restrictions may apply, so don’t be shy asking an associate.

That means if the price of an item you already purchased drops within 14 days of your purchase, Kohl’s will pay you the difference.

The only time this doesn’t apply is when the item is (or was) a BOGO (Buy One, Get One) sale or if is a Kohl’s clearance.

9. Be On The Lookout For Gold Star Kohl’s Clearance Items

The deepest discounts you can find will be on Gold Star Clearance items.

These items are as high as 80% off the original ticket price! Combined with Kohl’s cash, coupon codes, or rewards you could pay next to nothing for these items.

When you learn how to find Kohl’s clearance, you’ll be saving some BIG money! You can even find some better deals on the second and forth Saturday of the month.

10. Know The Digital Price Codes

If you’re ever unsure whether or not you are getting the best deal, look for these codes on the digital price signs:

“NM” (new markdown)

“GV” (great value)

“BB” (bonus buy)

“BGH” (buy one, get one half off)

S (sale price)

50 (50% off)

PP (Product placement, which means the sale price is fixed)

These Kohl’s hacks will do your wallet well!
